PART LOT 16, B.F.C., FORMER TWP. OF DARLINGTON
REMOVAL OF "(H) HOLDING SYMBOL
RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is respectfully recommended to Council the following:
1. THAT Report PD-243-87 be received; and
2. THAT the application submitted by J. Silva to permit the construction of a
manufacturing facility and associated sales office, located on Part of Lot
16, Broken Front Concession, former Township of Darlington, be approved in
part and that the attached by-law, thereby removing the "(H) Holding"
symbol from the easterly portion of the subject lands be approved.
BACKGROUND .AND COMMENT:
As noted within Report PD®227-87, submitted for Committee's consideration at their
September 8, 1987 Meeting, the Planning Department received an application for
rezoning and site plan approval submitted by J. Silva to rezone a parcel of land
located within Part of Lot 16, Broken Front Concession, former Township of
Darlington. The purpose of the rezoning and site plan applications was to permit
the construction of a manufacturing facility and associated sales office. In
consideration of the intent and scale of the rezoning application and through the
review of the appropriate files, it became apparent that the current floodplain

regulations which affect the property would significantly impact the applicant's
proposal. In consideration of the application, the Conservation Authority, as
noted within Staff Report PD-214-87, requested the applicant to undertake a
Watershed Study to establish the 1:100 Year Floodline for the Darlington Creek.
This Study has been completed and indicates that a 1:100 Year Floodplain would
free up a signficant portion of the property for development. It appears from
discussion with the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority that they are
prepared to accept the Study and its recommendations subject to approval by the
Ministry of Natural Resources of a change in the regulatory flood for this
watershed.
Staff would note that a Public Meeting has been scheduled for October 5, 1987 to
consider the rezoning application as well as a Public Meeting to obtain input in
respect of the proposed change to the regulatory flood for the Darlington Creek.
Staff would note for the Committee's information that the applicant,
notwithstanding the above comments, has revised the Site Plan application, as
submitted, thereby relocating the associated office use fully within the "(H)M1"
Industrial zone. Inasmuch as a Development Agreement has been completed thereby
acknowledging the revised site plan and location of the office use, Staff would
have no objection to the removal of the (H) Holding symbol in part, as
illustrated on the attached by-law thereby permitting the applicant to commence
construction of the office facilities.
Staff would note that the Public Meeting scheduled for October 5, 1987 in
respect of the zoning by-law amendment affecting the Environmental Protection
Zone and the proposed change to the regulatory flood standard for the Darlington
Creek will, pending receipt of approval, finalize the location of the proposed
manufacturing facilities. In addition to the above comments, Staff would note

the Development Agreement contains the necessary provisions acknowledging the
requirements for approval of the rezoning application and change to the
regulatory standards for the Darlington Creek.
